The Impaired Pair

 one fine day, it wasn't really fine
the clock hit stride, I found myself crying

Things were upside down, taking an ugly turn
I was ready to stand up, but it was a painful burn

riled up with thoughts, shaken with the hate
things started to happen, which I never wrote in my beautiful dreamt fate

What I said, only I had to deal
Oh no, was it the end? Is this agony that I feel?

My vision wasn't healthy to look through the truth so dark
even the courage that I had was told not to try
"there is no spark"

Words may be light, but I don't sob boarding this flight
It was a beautiful journey with gorgeous sleepless nights

It wasn't all carefree, or as easy as a cake bite
There were fights, without worrying who's wrong or who is right 

No regret, as they say, give it some time and it will pay
Trying it all, giving it all and recollecting myself as I fall

The only thing I rue is the goodbye
I swear I wanted to hug you like there was no tomorrow

Pity, you are a fraud
And now I have a lifetime worth of sorrow.
